Of course, I'm at 900 and I've been on here for 2 and a half years, y'all have only been here for a few months.

I'm slow. :ninja:

that's a definition of a loser, not a dork. while there is some overlap of the two categories, being one does not immediately imply you are the other.

You addictively watch Phatmass and check it in the morning before you go to class...

The best form of insult is a self-insult.

-You have or have had star wars vs. star trek arguments. Bonus points if you can quote statistics to back it up.
-You can quote every line of at least 5 movies. You watch movies w/ people who've never seen it, just to see their reactions.
-You've used more than 5 different operating systems on a computer before, not counting various versions of OS's. (ex. Mac OS, DOS, Windows, FreeBSD, Linux, BeOS, Solaris)
-You've spent more time optimizing/tweaking something that actually using it.
-You react to the wrong interpretation of comments, even if you know the right interpretation.
-You take things literally that are figurative, and you know it.
-You make puns. (heh I'm the [b]pun[/b]isher...)
-You would prefer to spend 3x the time to write a program to solve a problem than it would take just to solve it by hand.
-Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor is your hero. "More power!" is your motto.
-You would or could spend more money on computer equipment/software than the price of a new car, if you had the money.
-You look for ways to hack things, particularly game consoles or PDA's. <-- not me, though
-You can win minesweeper on expert mode more than you lose.
-umm, maybe I should stop revealing all my cool secrets....

I think about half of the things listed would qualify you as a nerd, not a dork. There are subtle but important differences.

Definitely. I'd have to say the spectrum goes from
loser<dork<nerd
from "worst" to "best". Often they can easily blend into one another



VS. contests are the best


Here's where you are wrong, my friend. This women has killed before.

Allegedly!

Ok, whatever, but she was a big girl. We are talking about a large, healthy women of questionable stability.

Oh, you are totally underestimating the "never say die" scrappiness of a survivor!

Hey guess what! Nobody cares who would win in a crazy fantasy fistfight between Anne Frank and Lizzie Borden!
